If your VPN suddenly drops, your activities risk to be exposed to your ISP.If you are sending unencrypted traffic, you are vulnerable to malicious Tor exit nodes.VPN provider can still see your real IP address and provide that info to law enforcement (LE) if they are LE friendly.Tor entry node will see your VPN IP address and not your real IP address.ISP cannot see that you are using Tor, only that you are using a VPN.VPN provider cannot see your traffic content or origin - only that you have connected to the Tor node.Benefiting from Tor’s anonymity and a VPN’s end-to-end encryption makes is a powerful combination for safe internet browsing. The VPN encrypted traffic would transmit to the Tor network via a couple Tor hops prior to reaching its destination. To use this setup, you need to connect to your chosen VPN server, and then launch the Tor Browser. You are not anonymous, but your activities are 100% private - apart from the VPNs that keep user logs and are cooperative with law enforcement. The benefit of using a VPN is that your ISP is not privy to your internet browsing habits, and network traffic. They retain stability and speeds, faster than Tor, to paying consumers. VPN, or Virtual Private Network, encrypts internet traffic, usually only routing through one hop. You are anonymous, but your activities are not 100% private. The exit node will see who you are communicating with, but not your location.The entry node will see your location, but not who you are communicating with.It then makes a minimum of two hops, eventually passing through a random exit node to its last destination - no sole node will see the whole picture of your activities: Tor has always been considered providing stronger anonymity than VPN your data first arrives at the network through a random node around the world. There are benefits and drawbacks of doing so, and the order makes a difference. However, I want to talk about increasing anonymity over the Internet and improving security of web traffic by using a combination of these tools. There is always the debate about which tool is better, VPN or Tor and for a short answer: it depends.
